Answer:
y = 3
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
-5x + 4y = 2
9x - 4y = 6
Sum both eq.
-5x + 9x = 4x
+4y - 4y = 0
2 + 6 = 8
then:
4x + 0 = 8
4x = 8
x = 8/4
x = 2
from the first eq.
-5x + 4y = 2
-5*2 + 4y = 2
-10 + 4y = 2
4y = 2 + 10
4y = 12
y = 12/4
y = 3
Check:
from the second eq.
9x - 4y = 6
9*2 - 4*3 = 6
18 - 12 = 6
2200 + 21.25X = 1840 +32.50X
subtract 1840 from each side
360+ 21.25X= 32.50X
subtract 21.25x from each side
360=11.25X
x= 360/11.25 = 32 minutes pool will have the same amount
21.25*32 = 680+2200 = 2880 liters
32.5*32 = 1040 + 1840=2880 liters
it will take 32 minutes and they will have 2880 liters each
Answer:
0.3
Step-by-step explanation:
0.8/y = 2 : 3/4
The value of y in the above expression can be obtained as follow:
0.8/y = 2 : 3/4
0.8/y = 2 ÷ 3/4
0.8/y = 2 × 4/3
0.8/y = 8/3
Cross multiply
0.8 × 3 = y × 8
2.4 = 8y
Divide both side by the coefficient of y i.e 8
y = 2.4/8
y = 0.3
Thus, the value of y is 0.3
